Hee--assuming Slovak is like Czech (and they are close enough to be dialects of each other, I'm told...), the extra letters are the female ending to your name. It's a pretty universal grammar rule, even with foreign names.

Whatever the title really means in Slovak, I'm sure it sounds very cool and marketable!

In my experience, I'd second your assumption about the name adjustment. When I was living in the Czech Republic, I saw in the bookstores many books translated from English and the "-ova" suffix was pretty much always added onto the surnames of female authors.
